Finally got to see a MG specialist Neuro at a teaching hospital (LUMC). I had high hopes that, at least, I would be properly tested etc.

Disaster. The same perfunctory, push pull stand tests as the first Neuro I had seen, with the same result... he says it is NOT Neurological, and therefore not his problem. Go back to your GP.

The Dutch Health Service is frankly not fit for purpose. It is compartmentalised to the extent that if specialist A can find one thing that doesn't fit in their specialism, then you are out the door. I am really strugging to know what to do next.
